Have you changed your sitecustomize.py file?

You're right that sys.getdefaultencoding() gets initialized to 'ascii'
everywhere for Python 2.7.  The default site.py doesn't change that (even on
Ubuntu), and then it deletes sys.setdefaultencoding, so it's not possible to
change that after initialization.

How are you getting sys.getdefaultencoding() to return 'UTF-8'?
